No reply back and no voicemail left. The provider flagged it clearly as a scam, so defo dodged a bullet there.

Got a random ring on my mobile this Saturday from 0161 2397354. No message left on my voicemail or anything. Feels like just another dodgy marketing call to me.

Got another call earlier today from a lady with an Indian accent saying she was from Sky. This is the second time someone’s phoned pretending to be from them.

Got a call from this number earlier today, but no voicemail was left so I couldn’t tell who it was or what they wanted. I ended up missing the call and decided to block the number since it felt a bit dodgy. Don’t trust it at all.

Got a call from what sounded like a bunch of scammers, like three of them chatting together. They all spoke at once and tried to trick me into giving my info. I knew it was dodgy straight away and hung up quick. Can't believe people still try these old tricks!

Got a call saying I had a £900 claim or something, but I hung up before they could even ask me for my bank info.

Got a call while I was busy at work, total scammers trying their luck.

Don't bother with this number. Just act like you’re with Three and check your account that way.

I picked up but the number on the phone just disconnected straight away.

Got a call from a number I didn’t recognise, but when I picked up, there was nobody there and no message left.

Lately I've been getting loads of calls from strange numbers, really irritating. I pick up and they just hang up on me. My phone flags them as possible scams too.

Got a call from this number but I didn’t answer. They didn’t bother to leave a voicemail either. Feels like it was probably a scam.

Got a call from this number around 1 in the afternoon when I was getting my hair done. Lately, loads of 073 numbers keep popping up and it's always some dodgy mobile phone scam. Reckon this must be another one of those. Good to see others aren’t picking up too, it’s definitely the smartest move.

Not sure who that was, I just let it ring out. Lately loads of random mobile numbers have been calling saying they're O2 and my sim card’s about to get cut off. I’d say don’t pick up if you don’t know the number.

I picked up this number and could hear children chatting in the background. When I asked who was calling, someone replied in a language I couldn't make out. I tried asking again who they were, but then the call just ended.

Make sure you always report any scams you come across. Scammers have been getting clever and now use AI to mimic voices during calls. They mix this with their usual tactics to try and steal money from your bank accounts. If you search for ‘voice cloning scams’ or ‘yes scams’ online, you’ll find plenty of news stories and advice from the police on this serious tech threat. All they need is just a few seconds of your voice and then you could be stuck dealing with trouble for ages. So, when you pick up an unknown phone call, keep quiet except for a simple ‘ello’ grumble. Listen carefully, then hang up if anything seems off, and report the call as a scam. Scammers can also grab your voice from your phone’s voicemail, returning missed calls from strange numbers, or even from recordings you’ve posted online. Do some research and spread the word so your mates and family don’t fall for it either.

Make sure to flag every scam call you get. I’ve shared some info below. Plus, loads of scammers are now using AI to copy your voice and pull off voice cloning scams, alongside their usual tricks to steal your money. If you look up terms like ‘voice cloning scams’ and ‘saying yes scams,’ you’ll find plenty of news articles and police advice about this really risky AI tech. Just imagine how these crooks manage to get hold of your voice! There are some ways explained online, but I’ve also come up with a few methods myself that you won’t find anywhere else.

If you want to help fight back against these scammers, make sure to report them right away. I’ve put some info below. Keep in mind, some fraudsters are now recording calls to use voice cloning tricks alongside their usual scams trying to drain your bank accounts. You can find plenty of info by searching for 'voice cloning scams' and 'yes scam calls' - there’s plenty of news articles and police advice about how risky this new AI tech is. Scammers only need a couple of seconds of your voice to mimic you, so when you pick up an unknown number, just give a quick ‘hello’ grunt and don’t say anything else. Listen for a bit, then hang up and report if it seems dodgy. Don’t leave personal voice messages on your voicemail, never call back numbers you don’t know and be mindful who can hear or save your voice recordings on social media.

I picked up the phone but said nothing, and then whoever was calling just hung up straight away. The same number, 01204920804, tried ringing me again later the same day.

I’ve been getting calls all week from some market survey place, this time a young woman speaking with a strange accent. I’ve blocked loads of their numbers but they keep ringing me from new ones. It’s seriously getting ridiculous now.

It’s pretty straightforward to report scam emails. Just forward them to '[email protected]'. You can also flag them using the phishing report option in your email - usually found under the three dots in the top right corner. The NCSC actually sends a quite interesting confirmation when you do this! Using that system helps mark the scammer’s email as junk across the web. When it comes to phone numbers linked to scams, folks calling these will definitely be on shaky ground. These scammers aren’t just skilled at draining your bank balance; many now use AI to record calls. If you look up ‘voice cloning scams,’ you’ll find loads of advice and warnings from the police and news stories about how dangerous this tech is. They only need a short clip of your voice, like 3 seconds chatting, and you could face years of trouble. Leaving voice messages on your phone, returning calls from unfamiliar numbers, or even posting your voice on social media is basically handing them everything to clone your voice.

Someone rang me then just cut the call. Definitely some sort of scam.

I let it ring out and didn’t leave any message.

Keeps ringing nonstop, I block one number and then a different one starts up with the same annoying calls.

She told me my SIM card would stop working in just three days. Then she wanted me to open a text message. When I said no, she snapped at me, saying it wasn’t her problem if I couldn’t get it! Totally rude and aggressive!
